Experience
2023 — Now
San Francisco Bay Area
I help founders and innovation teams take AI-enabled products from 0→1 - from concept to MVP scope, UX/UI, and validation-ready prototypes (often alongside a lean design system).
Selected work
Mars Petcare Innovation: partnered with innovation leadership to productize proprietary AI into consumer-facing pet health diagnostic tools, embedded across major Mars pet brands (e.g., IAMS, Greenies, Pedigree, Royal Canin).
NEW: AI Outplacement Platform (0→1): end-to-end product design for an AI-enhanced platform supporting displaced employees (audits, evaluations, pathways, AI content + human coaching).
What I deliver
• MVP definition + product architecture (what to build first, what to cut)
• AI-native UX (human-in-the-loop, trust & feedback loops, guardrails)
• UX/UI design + rapid prototyping (Figma) for demos, testing, and stakeholder alignment
• Design systems + developer handoff (tokens/components, implementation guidance)
